Hey guys! I've made a new theme, based on the "literal" theme. I just changed the positions and the font, so that the unicode font "sazanami-mincho-10" fits perfectly. It works with all clips (v1,v1, clip +) You can download it from: http://themes.rockbox.org/index.php?target=sansaclipv2

This makes me sad - I wanted to be able to use my Clip+ for a holiday phrasebook. Are there any plugins, third party or otherwise, known to work for reading text? No bells/whistles/precompiled binaries required at all?

P.S. Another vote for the oppressed two-finger-key-lock minority!

-ETA-

This post points out that the text editor and viewer are different plugins... and the editor does work.

how could I install this theme? it's important to me that have many asian songs with asian font.

Clipster, I noticed that too - actually it's an anomaly between volume levels -32 to -26. I notice it even more since I have pan/balance enabled, and in that volume range the pan/balance shifts around as well, next to the larger jump in volume.

I just made a new build with Saratoga's way of altering the volume level, and it has smooth transitions in that volume area - but I think it's not as loud as the other two variants, suggested by Funman and Timar. I will have to test that to be sure.

Actually, Timar's post I linked above contradicts Saratoga's patch. Can anyone clarify the situation - which is the "most proper" way of altering the volume?

The Timar and Funman versions are equally loud, the 0.2dB difference is random and negligible, since I recorded white noise over an analog out/input. The difference is that with the way Funman suggested altering the volume, the jump in volume and pan/balance is now between -40 to -35dB, contrary to the Timar-version I posted before.

the as3527 datasheet might be helpful on this topic, the audio registers description is pretty much similar to what is found in the as3543 chip present in the clip+/clipv2/fuzev2.

I have the as3543 datasheet too but I told AustriaMicroSystems that I would keep it private so I can't redistribute it, but if you need something which isn't described in the rockbox source code feel free to ask me or other rockbox developers as they have this document.

Looking through the firmware\export\config files, it would appear that the only targets with "#define CONFIG_CPU AS3525v2" are Sansa Clip+, Clip V2 & Fuze V2. I only own a Clip+, so couldn't check the affect on other targets.

Edit: It seems the tabs got stripped from the gain results on Flyspray, here they are with spaces instead;

To be perfectly clear, I didn't commit Timar's patch because it screws up the volume levels. Max volume is fine, but middle volumes are not. I fixed that issue in my patch, but broke something else as he explained in an email to me (which I probably should have put on the patch tracker so everyone knew about it). What actually need to happen is that every volume level needs to be decreased by 6dB, not just chopping off the top 6dB like I did, or pulling out 6dB in the middle like Timar did.
